Method of analysis of samples sedimentary with automatic recognition of nannofossils

摘要

The method for analysing sedimentary samples comprises the following steps: taking images of the samples with a microscope; pre-processing the images to extract zones of interest therefrom; analysing the zones of interest by means of artificial neural networks to carry out a first classification of objects between groups of species of nanofossils; analysing the zones of interest by at least one method of morpho-statistical recognition to carry out a second classification of objects between the groups of species of nanofossils; and gathering the results of the first and second classifications into at least one file indicating the groups of species of nanofossils respectively assigned to the zones of interest by the first and second classifications.
